This is from a series of works on wood panels by Rene Vasquez, done in 2018. Though this artist comes from a primarily Mexican background, he was raised in Southern California. The work is very suggestive of the magical realism of a Leonora Carrington, or Remedios Varo. His work has alot of the precision, technical mastery, and conceptual brilliance displayed by both of those outstanding Latin Masters.


"This is from a recent series of works on wood panels by Rene Vasquez. Though this artist comes from a primarily Mexican background, he was raised in Southern California. The work is very suggestive of the magical realism of a Leonora Carrington, or Remedios Varo. His work has alot of the precision, technical mastery, and conceptual brilliance displayed by both of those outstanding Latin Masters.


The following is a quote of Vasquez, which offers some insight into this exquisite body of work. "I am a self-confessed narcissist, and agnostic, though I long to find God and to be less self consumed. In my work I have gone all the way from the pursuit of poetry and beauty, to the ugliness and terror wrought by the desire of man. I have come to the point where I believe there is one pervasive theme and urgency facing man, or more specifically men. That is the ongoing femenization and the effort to strip men, of his masculine role in the world.


These paintings depict myself as I seek the base origin of this masculine nature. I confess I am a sucker for beautiful woman, and much of history seems to stem from the pursuit of beauty and pleasure. It seems like the amount of destruction caused by this pursuit, is in direct proportion to the nature and extent of an individuals particular fetish and obsession. 
In my case, as I stated earlier, it is the desire to possess beauty, and to be surrounded by it. While still a youth a theory occurred to me, that in order to possess beauty, I had to mimic it.

 

I have since come to realize that beauty must be a form of power. I am in the process of resolving, and working on my own deprogramming, in order to return to the source of my own being, and in order to become a more realized man. It seems to be a process of evolving past stupidity, failure, and self abuse, perhaps by developing more self control? I am born naked and bound to the earth with my eyes on the heavens and dreams of immortality. I need to be broken, of so many of my misconceptions. I need to free myself from my tangle of the undergrowth. 
My wife tells me I am an oaf and a chauvinist but throws herself at me in the same breath. I know I am on to something."

Great quality, color is ok.
Color: Cream Brown, Size: 2 x 6 ft Sheepskin
The quality, texture, feel and smell of the rug is very good. The hairs adhere to the back lining well and don't shed even with my cat trying to bite it out. The only downside unfortunately is aesthetic— the cream brown I ordered, in natural light/sun shining on it, looks more yellowish - gold.

Great Quality!
Color: Ivory White, Size: 2' x 6' (Sheepskin Shape), Color: Ivory White, Size: 2' x 6' (Sheepskin Shape)
I have owned many sheepskins before and this one is by far the best deal. Cheaper than similar sizes, but not in a bad way! It’s a beautiful creamy white, super plush, and is very long. We keep it on the back of our couch and it gives a very cozy vibe. I haven’t had any issues with it shedding. Word of advice for cat owners: When we first got it, it did have a sheepskin smell but it isn’t a gross smell and it went away within a few days; however, my cat was very attracted to that smell and was “attacking” the sheepskin. We trained her not to do it just by spraying her with water—after a few times of that she stopped going anywhere near it. Now that the smell has dissipated, she isn’t attracted to it anymore but does like to sit on it every once and awhile (I can’t blame her, it’s sooooo soft). I saw someone else say their cat ruined their rug, so I wanted to give our story on how we prevented that and hopes it helps another cat owner. You just have to be alert for the first day, maybe even let it off-gas outside first, then keep a spray bottle nearby and the cat should stop messing with it!

Great little rug!
Color: Ivory White, Size: 2' x 3' (Sheepskin Shape), Color: Ivory White, Size: 2' x 3' (Sheepskin Shape)
This nice little sheepskin rug is the perfect finishing touch to my little reading nook. It’s soft and thick. Follow the enclosed instructions to fluff it up. I was going to order a second one but saw that the price jumped nearly $10 in a week. It’s nice but it’s not worth that amount. I’d buy it on sale though. Five stars.

Definitely genuine pelts.
Size: 2' x 3' (Natural shape, Sheepksin, Oblong), Color: Ivory White
I like the color. Not too white, more of a natural shade. I ordered two, for each side of the bed. One is larger than the other which proves they are genuine pelts and I’m ok with it!!

Great small size rug
Size: 2' x 3' (Natural shape, Sheepksin, Oblong), Color: Ivory White
Size is great, I wanted to use as a throw on a leather ottoman and it fit great. It isn’t exactly the color I expected but it is a neutral cream. Soft and comfortable. Well made.
